Snow booger remover

ABSTRACT

The finished version of the snow booger removal tool for vehicles originated through experimentation with a wide variety of materials and sizes, over a period of two years. 
     The application was designed to perform the job for which it was intended, be mass produced in the U.S.A., shipped economically and make a profit. 
     After testing numerous prototypes, a predetermined lightweight handle was selected because it could be quickly drilled, cut to accept the replaceable blade and make it easy for the operator to use the application without bending over. 
     A predetermined replaceable scraper blade was selected that would not damage a vehicle&#39;s paint or body parts. The blade needed to be replaceable due to the possibility of becoming dull or damaged after prolonged use. Replacement blades are available through the applicant. 
     The nylock nut and bolts were selected for their longevity in maintaining a secure holding of the replaceable scraper blade into the handle.

this functional, novelty, lightweight, but sturdy snow removal tool ismade from U.S.A. components, assembled in Minnesota. It consists of apredetermined handle with a hanging hole on one end. The other end ofthe handle has a slot cut in to contain a predetermined sturdy, flexibleand replaceable scraper blade secured by two nylock nuts screwed ontotwo bolts after they are fitted into two matching holes that are drilledin the handle and scraper blade.

The SNOW BOOGER REMOVER tool is used to quickly and easily remove snowboogers, which consist of chunks of ice and snow deposits that collectand get wedged in wheel wells, behind tires and under the outside edgesof a vehicle between front and back tires. The tool handle is held bytwo hands in order to effectively scrape off the snow boogers on avehicle BEFORE entering a garage, thus helping to reduce wet and messygarage floors from the melting snow boogers that occur during the wintersnow season.
